They need a Bronson Arroyo/Wade Miley style inning eater. Someone who can be good more than he's bad and go deep into games. Preferably a veteran. A guy like that might help protect the pen from melting down from overuse like they are right now.
Also, I'd invest in another high end late inning guy. Someone to lock up a game in 7 innings like Milwaukee used to have with Williams and Hader.
These guys might not be "cheap" but they are going to be a lot more affordable than high end starters. With the FO being as concerned with money as they are, I think these are the best investments. High end starters are a huge crapshoot. Sheeling out big money to them is always a big risk for a team that identifies as broke such as the Reds.
